Way over Yonder, that's where I'm bound |
I had the 'you know you're old when' thought three times today:
1. A very long conversation at the opticians about varifocals.
2. I put the washing machine and when I went to empty the machine discovered I hadn't switched it on.
3. Filled my water glass, put it down and couldn't find it again (I'd put it in the fridge and left the jug from the fridge on the counter).

About 18 months ago I picked something up to read it (a beer bottle, I think) but couldn'tske out the lettering. Moved it closer, as I always had previously, but that made it worse. Moved it further away and suddenly it was clearer.
Then I thought "Oh, shit....!" |

"When you are looking forward to Pop masters with Ken Bruce.
I love Pop Masters because I don't know a lot of the answers and can still pretend I'm still young. "
You are young enough to be my daughter, now that makes me feel old |

A box at end of your bed |
"You constantly turn down the volume on the radio, but have to constantly turn up the volume on the tv "
That is because the crap on the radio is louder than the crap on the TV. |

"I gave up on Radio 1 in the early 80s...."
You only need to listen for about half an hour, every 6 months as whatever you hear in that half hour is their entire playlist for that 6 months... And 99% of it is utter shite! |

"I'll never..never ..ever look forward to popmasters with Ken Bruce....I used to look forward to Janet and John on Terry wogan lol "
I managed to buy a copy of each series of J&J released for Children in Need a few years ago.
Very funny they are, too!
You can still find a few clips on YouTube. |

"You wear bed socks in the winter and hug a hot water bottle."
Oh I love my hot water bottle
I also love the wheat bags you put in the microwave to put on my feet over my bed socks
I'm ancient |

"When your arms are no longer long enough to hold things so you can read them.
My eyesight is fine, I just need some longer arms.
That was one of the tests the optician did today.
"
Did you have long enough arms? |

For most things, but I have got two new prescriptions.

"When you look forward to your birthday or Christmas for new socks and slippers.
